The King of Elden does not die alone!

"This reminds me of Rodel."

"Is Rodel like this?" Mia asked curiously.

If the Golden Tree's royal city was just like this, it would obviously lack some quality.

Wilden shook his head: "It's just that when you see a corner like this, there will be some similarities."

"Oh, I understand." Mia nodded.

The concrete streets covering the entire city gave her a sense of déjà vu as if she were on a pedestrian street in her previous life.

The streets are very clean, unlike the dirty streets with feces and urine everywhere as the stereotype of medieval times.

The Anglo-Saxons had not yet destroyed the island's heritage.

But if history follows its original trajectory, this is bound to happen.

Britain was not like the Borderlands, where almost everything had been destroyed. But here, even if it was decaying, civilization had not been destroyed.

Apart from the war, everything here is so orderly, peaceful and prosperous.

Inexplicably, Mia felt a surge of pity in her heart.

What if the civilization on this island could be preserved and these beautiful buildings not destroyed?

"This is what a city is." Merlin looked around eagerly.

Anyone who knows Merlin a little bit should know what he is thinking now.

There is a 50% chance that he is thinking about girls, and the remaining 50% chance that he is thinking about women.

In short, according to his usual romantic nature, he would rush to the gentle countryside of the big city as soon as he left Altria behind.

Mia also likes cities. Although she doesn't like active socializing, just watching people coming and going in the city is much better than the endless wilderness.

The place where the villagers were accommodated was the oval arena.

The British had no custom of watching gladiatorial fights, so this oval building, full of decorative columns, was used as a tournament arena for knights.

But now was not the time for a knightly tournament, so the king ordered his soldiers to clear the space in the arena to accommodate refugees from the village.

"There are no ready-made accommodations in the city, so we can only ask you and your subjects to stay here temporarily."

Knight Egede hurriedly thanked him sincerely.

The environment here has far exceeded his psychological expectations. Egede understands that it is difficult for refugees to be welcomed no matter where they are.

He thought that the king would simply mark out a piece of open space under the city wall, but he didn't expect that he would put them directly in the arena.

"I will go and report your arrival. His Majesty hopes to see you soon."

The official said and left.

Eggard gave a short speech to the villagers, announcing that the hardest times were over and that under the king's leadership, they would surely retake their homeland.

The speech had little effect.

The villagers carried their loads and drove their livestock, traveling day and night for three days to reach the city. The only hope for most people was to have a good sleep, whether they had a bed or not.

People long for rest.

Egede called his officer and asked him to send men to guard the entrance of the arena and not let anyone out.

If someone wanted to go out to buy supplies or something else, they had to submit an application to the officer, who would then select an agent to do the shopping on their behalf.

These villagers must not be allowed to disrupt the order of the city.

Eggard knew very well that they were the guests.

Before going to the palace, Eggard found Altria.

"Lord Eggard." Artoria quickly stood up and thought, "We will leave here soon."

She still remembered the agreement she made with Eggard.

Once they were in the city, they had to stay away from the war.

"No," Eggard shook his head: "I'm not here to chase you away. On the contrary, I think I owe you an apology."

"I judged people by appearance."

The knight said.

When Kai and Altria first met Eggard, he looked down on them with a sense of superiority that belonged to an elder.

But in the subsequent battles, both Kai and Altria showed that their strength was no less than that of a mature warrior.

The two wanted to say something polite, but Eggard didn't want his apology to seem insignificant.

He immediately responded: "I think you can go with me to see the king."

"But it seems that the king did not summon us?" Kai said.

"Indeed, I have not, but I feel that it would be an honor for me to introduce you to my Majesty."

And of course, Mia.

Eggard later specifically found Mia. For reasons of ability, it was obvious that Mia was much more important than anyone else.

Mia agreed and she would take Wilden and Melina to the palace.

Meeting a ruler from another world wouldn't be a bad idea.

"Well, I won't go, right?" Merlin suddenly said before leaving.

"No, you must go." Kai said without hesitation: "As Altria's teacher, how can you escape when she is meeting a prince for the first time?"

"But I can't do anything about it," Merlin said shyly.

As if meeting this king was a very bad thing, Merlin even admitted that he was "useless".

Kai straightened his expression and coughed, "Hey, Mr. Merlin, you don't want everyone to know that Altria made a fool of herself in front of the princes, right?"

"Ah, no, no, no," Merlin waved his hands: "I believe Altria can handle this matter..."

"Are you going or not?!"

In short, it was half persuasion and half coercion.

Merlin was wrapped in a hood, without even a staff, like an Assassin, and reluctantly followed the others to the palace.

The king lived in a palace in the inner city, which had two walls, both of which were solid walls made of stone bricks and concrete.

In the throne room, with guards standing on both sides, they saw the ruler, the prince of Lancaster.

He was a capable-looking old man with a goatee, and his eyes had not become cloudy at all due to the influence of time.

He sat on the throne wearing a crown that had little decoration and was more like a gilded headband than a crown.

"Stop here." The king held out a hand.

Because the men did not hand over their weapons to the soldiers when they entered the throne room, the king asked them to stop ten steps away.

After seeing the king, Knight Egede half-knelt and saluted him.

"Your Majesty, Brydin."

King Brydin looked at the knight in front of him seriously: "Egede, my tribune. I have granted your family the honor of managing my land. Why did you abandon your fiefdom?"

"Please forgive me, the situation was urgent at the time and this was the most prudent decision I could have made at the time."

King Brydin sighed.

He couldn't blame the knight for such a thing. Anyone would make such a judgment in the absence of soldiers and defensive facilities.

"Please stand up, Knight Egede." King Brydin stretched out a hand and raised it upwards.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," he said, standing up.

Mia noticed that the king's left hand was hidden under his robe.

"I called you here for something else," King Brydin looked at the people following behind Eggard, "but I think you have something to say as well. Why don't you start?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eggard kept his head down, and he was about to introduce something to the king.

Suddenly the king's voice was raised.

"But I am more curious," the king said, "Why would Merlin, the magician who once served the High King, appear in my court?"

"Alas... At this time, I can't get away with saying 'You are looking for the magician Merlin', what does it have to do with 'Magician Merlin'?" Merlin lifted his hood helplessly: "I was recognized after all. If I had known, I would have been more determined and would never come..."

Kai glanced at him.

It seemed to be asking: 'The reason you don't want to come here is because you're afraid of being recognized?!'

The guards frowned, obviously dissatisfied with Merlin, a young man with unknown origins and no respect for the king.

"Haha." The king's goatee trembled slightly, and he laughed, "It seems that Lord Merlin's intention was not to come to me."

After that, he looked at the people following behind Eggard and said, "Well, would you like to introduce me to the people who are traveling with you?"

Merlin said irresponsibly: "Well, should I let Sir Egede speak for me?"

The king shook his head.

Brydin had heard of the name and character of Merlin, Uther's court wizard, long before Britannia was divided like this.

"Or, would you like to come and say it in person?" Alai stretched out his hand towards several people.

He hasn't figured out who is in the dominant position yet.

Maybe Kai?

Although Weldon is the biggest, usually, such people can only be knights at most.

Apart from the other women, Kai is the only one who fits the stereotype of a team leader.

"I am Kai, son of Sir Ector," Kai answered.

"This is Altria, my sister."

Kai finished introducing the two and turned to look at Mia.

If Mia doesn't speak, then Kai will wait for her to introduce herself.

Mia decided to name herself.

"My name is Mia, Your Majesty Bridin, and I'm just a traveler." She introduced herself briefly without revealing anything about the handover location.

"This is Melina," Mia continued.

千!寻'小?说:中!:'?转,,裙.2:"5',5":.5,."9:5":,!3":!0!!:'0“我是米娅大人的侍从！”忽然间，梅琳娜有些大声的回答。

As if to ensure that Mia would not be at a disadvantage in the conversation with the king, he claimed to be Mia's attendant.

"Ah..." Mia paused, feeling a little embarrassed for some reason.

"This is Wilden, a knight," she finally introduced.

"Hmm..." The King was one of the few people who didn't admire Wilden's size.

He is thinking about something.

"Ector...Ector," he muttered.

After a moment, he leaned forward and asked expectantly, "Are you originally from Wales?"

"Yes." Kai nodded.

"Then, was your mother ever the Knight Commander in the High King's Legion?"

"Yes." Kai also nodded.

King Brydin took a deep breath.

He stood up suddenly, and the sleeve of his left hand was empty.

"Merlin, Merlin, even though I don't know the full story, why are you trying to deceive me when you have already brought such a young knight before me?"

He muttered, his feet moving quickly and he was in front of Kai in an instant.

"Come, young man, let me see your sword."

"Your Majesty!" The guard saw his king making a dangerous move and hurriedly dissuaded him.

"It's okay," Brighton shook his head, asked the guards to retreat, and then looked at Kai with a smile on his face.

"Young man, draw your sword before me, and let me see it."
